BubbleUPnP only supports one album art URL per track (albumArtURI in DIDL).
So if several albumArtURI were sent for front, back, etc covers, only one would be used.

What I was suggesting for users having multiple covers and wanting to display them in BubbleUPnP, is to browse the media server's filesystem folder hierarchy (if any) and see if it lists both music items and images. For MinimServer, that's the [folder view] hierarchy. However, MinimServer discard all non-music items when browsing this hierarchy. Thus no images.

Maybe it would interesting to also list images in a folder, at least for folders within the [folder view] hierarchy. I suppose this could also be generalized for music album containers, but potential side effects may be a problem (some Control Points may not expect getting music and image items in an album container).

Thanks for the clarification. What you are suggesting would effectively make MinimServer into a photo server as well as a music server. At the moment, I would prefer to keep MinimServer as a music server only.
